I've just started seeing a Mexican guy from my past. We knew each other 5 years ago and in that time had our share of good times and bad.
It's weird, because I know practically everything about him, but in a strange way he feels like a stranger, it's like I'm learning him all over again.
Just curious, what positives/ negatives have you experienced as a Black/ Mexican couple or Black/ Mexican child?

I'm sorry I can't offer you a first-hand experience as a Black/Mexican child, however, my niece is half B/M and so is my cousin's daughter. My niece is still a baby but my cousin is already grown and we love them just as we do everyone else in our family and we've never treated them any differently. It might help that we are a culturally diverse family. My family by blood is Spanish/Mexican/Peruvian and we have children who are half Irish or half Korean or half Scottish or half Black.
Unfortunately my cousin probably had to deal with dirty looks from ignorant people when her daughter was small (this was in the 1980's) because my cousin looks very clearly Hispanic and her daughter looks very clearly Black, but hopefully that 20 years later my niece won't go through the same thing.
Best of luck to you!
I know other B/M couples and the children of this "mixture" are always GORGEOUS!!!

My family (cousins) have children in that situation. I think the negative is obviously the language and culture barrier. The children are struggling to learn both languages and the environment of the grandparents are polar opposite. Structure is a big factor in how the relationship will grow or fall apart. Five years is a long time, people can change. I think that should be exciting, learning new aspects about a person, that way is it a new relationship. I think any relationship will have positives and negatives. They all depend on how stable each person is and their views, morals and beliefs!

Why have you turned it into a interracial question? I have had to go there in the past with people on this website in regards to pointing out that the other person is of another race. Whether it is right or wrong is on you and your preference, I don't recommend it if you are not use to people giving you **** whether it be your friends, his friends or one of your families. There is always going to be something that someone doesn't like about it. I am not completely against it, I personally have a problem with people dating outside of their race for the wrong, most superficial reasons and then pointing it out as if they are challenging me to say something (which I would) . If you have to ask the question or it doesn't feel right due to your differences in races then don't do it. We have plenty of biracial people or interracial couples on this website that would disagree with me completely... I don't care, my opinion is my opinion. You have plenty of hispanic/black folks walking around or some other mix. Only real problem that biracial people have ever had is as they get older, they have to choose an identity/culture that they plan to represent strong. ex..... They either hang with hispanics or blacks. Which group is going to be their strong point? Your environment will choose this for you. The other thing that use to be a problem is what box to check off on tests and surveys, ex.....
caucasian
african american
hispanic
native amaerican
asian
they have changed these options to make it less confusing for mixed races. I imagine the census long ago was very inaccurate due to this "check the box" method.

Same things as a black/white couple. People may stare, they may talk crap about you.
I date black people. I get talked about ALOT. But it is worth it completely. If you love/like him, forget the negatives and focus on the positives.

Ok I'm a black woman and I'm dating a Mexican man, and we love each other. We are the same in a lot of ways he loves music of all kinds we match well. I think that you and your man will do just fine and when you guys have kids that will be beautiful. Don't listen to your friends when it comes to him or some family either. Mexicans aren't that different from African Americans we have lots of similarities. From the way we were raised, things that tick our parents off and how they react to them, some foods we eat, the way we talk, and things we like to do for fun. Idk that's how it is for me and baby. We don't have kids yet we are still waiting until marriage. Like I said idk te amo mi amor.

as long as you two like each other then nothing to worry about. don't pay any of the people who stare at you because those are the ones who never been with a woman or man before so u should be lucky.

What difference does it make? You experience the same things any other couples experience. Who cares what others think, do what you like!
